during my rewatch of “The Hand” the reason why the Czech government refused to distribute the short film because it has something to do with the government. The hand represents the government because the hand was bribing the protagonist to make a hand for them and the main character refuses his request. And in the middle of the film the hand (the government) forced him to make it by using puppet strings. once after the main character finishes sculpting the hand. the hand hands him two medals and puts a crown on his head symbolizing the service to the government.
